About the Lab
Professor Chami Im's research lab specializes in vascular and endovascular interventions, with a focus on acute vascular injuries and complex vascular diseases. The lab investigates clinical outcomes in critically ill patients, particularly those with pelvic fractures and renal artery dissection, emphasizing early diagnosis and minimally invasive treatment strategies. Their work bridges diagnostic imaging, interventional radiology, and surgical critical care to improve patient survival and recovery in trauma and vascular emergencies. The lab also explores the role of advanced imaging techniques in identifying and managing rare but life-threatening vascular conditions.

2Spontaneous renal artery dissection (SRAD) is a rare disease entity. The diagnosis is usually delayed because clinical presentation is non-specific. We report three cases of symptomatic SRAD complicated by renal infarction which occurred in previously healthy middle-aged male patients. They visited the hospital due to acute abdominal or flank pain. They had no specific underlying disease or trauma history. The laboratory tests and physical examination were normal. They were not suspected of havi
PURPOSE: Managing hemodynamically unstable patients with pelvic fractures is highly challenging, particularly when vascular injuries are present, as these can significantly worsen prognosis. This study evaluated outcomes in patients with pelvic trauma and vascular injuries prior to the introduction of preperitoneal pelvic packing. METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of 195 patients with pelvic injuries who presented to the emergency room of our hospital between May 2003 and
